Peachy Pups

"I am just saying that your love of collecting every kind of puppy like they're pokemon has officially gone just a step too far, my love," Margo said as she leaned gracefully back against the giant oak sheltering their picnic blanket. Her legs are folded together and tucked elegantly under the copious folds of her ruby skirt. Eliot tried not to whine like Gin being denied one of the treats that the purebred husky loved so much. Margo was right, of course, because Margo had the vexing habit of always being right, but that didn't mean that she had to actually say it out loud where anyone could hear it.

Especially the man who was the subject of their current discussion, who was playing along the lake's beach with their admittedly overwhelmingly number of dogs that he and Eliot were currently sharing custody of. Not that they were likely to maintain that number for much longer. The unexpected litter of puppies was nearly ready to be separated from their mother Jane (a pretty mutt of an indeterminable number of breeds with a mixture of fur that was black, gray, white, and a rather orangey sienna). All five puppies had already been accepted into the same charity program that had trained Jane for her duties as Quentin's service animal. The puppies along with Jane had their appointments to be fixed next week, which had only waited until the puppies had been fully weaned.

Eliot wasn't looking forward to no longer having the excuse to visit Quentin for hours on end. And lose it, he would, because despite having spent so much time in the man's company over the last few months, Eliot had yet to pull his act together enough to actually ask Quentin if he would like to maybe do some activity that didn't involve anything canine.

Not that Eliot had anything against doggy style.

"Admittedly, your taste in puppies is rather nice." Margo sipped her wine carefully as she eyed the rambunctious group chasing each other around in a random pattern. Quentin must have felt her gaze because he paused to look in their direction. Margo saluted him with her glass, earning a wide grin from the man. It transformed his entire face in a way that had Eliot sighing in pathetic pining. "And the dogs aren't bad either. There's a lot of Gin in them, isn't there?"

"Not enough gin in me for this discussion," Eliot muttered.

"I think you're rather be filled with cold water," she retorted.
